Evidence for my ePortfolio
I decided to investigate home-based exercise programmes, such as Wii Fit Plus.
Here is a link to information about it.

I found this review on Youtube about it.
and here are some reviews about it:

Pros
- Better options for multiplayer mode; fun new games
- Strength and yoga moves can be combined to flow together
- Choose built-in or custom routines
- See calories burned for each game or session
- Syncs seamlessly with existing Wii Fit data
Cons
- Preset routines are brief and not intuitively named
- Not a substitute for more vigorous, sustained exercise
- Still too much click-through and too many extra screens

| Rating | Description | |
|---|---|---|
| out of 10 | ||
| 7.5 | Presentation A healthy list of exercises and balance board games -- everything from the original plus 15 new minis and six new exercises. Calorie counter. Programs. BMI is flawed. Graphics are still too basic. |
|
| 5.0 | Graphics Intentionally simple and unimposing. There's polish, but the presentation is also a little boring. |
|
| 6.0 | Sound Crisp audio from the on-screen trainers, but their guiding dialog is repeated way too often. |
|
| 8.5 | Gameplay Working out made fun with more games, more exercises and routine programs. BMI system is imprecise, though. Some of the games are uninspired. |
|
| 9.0 | Lasting Appeal Huge selection of games and exercises, as well as a local multiplayer mode. No online leaderboards or challenges, though, which is unfortunate. |

I also interviewed a friend who has Wii Fit Plus
Overall, it seems like this is a good product to buy if you want to get fit and healthy. It's cheaper than a gym membership, and more convenient. Also it would be fun for families. I am thinking about buying one of these myself to keep fit.
